The new feature film 'Mosul,' written and directed by Matthew Michael Carnahan, is now in post-production in Los Angeles.  Shot in secret this past spring on location in Morocco, “Mosul,” explores the true story of an elite police unit made up almost entirely of native sons of Mosul who fought to liberate the city from six thousand ISIS militants. “Mosul” is based on an extraordinary feat of journalism by Luke Mogelson in The New Yorker in which he embedded with the unit for two months and documented the SWAT team's desperate fight, block by block, to destroy ISIS.  Joe and Anthony Russo's AGBO and Condé Nast Entertainment shot the film in Marrakech, Morocco and have been editing in Los Angeles at AGBO.  The film delivers scope, action and quality on par with the best of Hollywood.  Shot by Academy Award-winning cinematographer Mauro Fiore, “Mosul” is beautiful, epic and impossibly tense.

'Animals' has been canceled after three seasons on HBO, according to Variety.

Todd Makurath, Chief Operating Officer of AGBO, announced today the expansion of the executive ranks with the hiring of Dennis Hands (Chief Financial Officer), Irene Flores (General Counsel), and Nicholas Anglewicz (EVP, Finance & Strategy). They come to AGBO with a wealth of experience in the film and entertainment industry.  The group will be joining AGBO as part of its focus towards growing its footprint as a full service media company.
